I care greatly for dogs and cats (and all animals!), I will update you every step of the way on taking care of them. I understand it requires a lot of trust to allow a stranger to take care of one of, if not, the most important member(s) of your family, so I'm willing to assist you in anyway to help alleviate that fear. Shoot me a message or call at anytime that I'm with your pet and I will answer! I'll be sure to safely use the leashes/collars/harnesses you provide, and never let your dog off the reins to make sure they remain safe and secure at all times. For in home visits, I'll only be in as long or as little as you need. As a heads up, for walks my boyfriend, who you are welcome to meet and speak to at any time, will likely accompany me. This is for my safety as well as your dog's safety in the event of any kind of emergency, plus he's a dog lover too! If you would like to request that he not be present due to your preference or if your pet has aggression or fear towards men, do not hesitate to ask! He can stay in the car if need be. Lastly, if you have any small animals (rats, hamsters, snakes, birds, etc.) that need fed or watered while I am visiting, let me know! I have experience with small animals and would be happy to assist.
